FAQs

This class is for the amateur or professional adult actor. It can be a great introduction and foundation for the craft or a way to keep growing and improving. Ideally, students will have had some production experience OR at least one acting class, but beginners can be accommodated. You should consider this class if:

– You have never done any acting but would like to know what it’s all about, may want to pursue it, or may simply want to become more comfortable speaking in front of people

– You have done some acting in the past and now want refresh your skills

– You have done a lot of acting, have never taken a class or haven’t taken one in a long time, and want to see if you’ve been missing anything

– You have done a lot of acting and want to keep growing and improving in your craft

This class is for people who would like to improve their audition skills.  Ideally, you should have at least one monologue memorized on which you want to work to get started, but we can identify and explore material if you don’t know where to start.

This class is for people who attend networking events at which they are given time to talk about their business (the “elevator pitch”). You should have a 30 second, 45 second, or 60 second speech to get started. We’ll help you improve your delivery and offer tips on content, if necessary.

Currently, classes are being offered primarily for adults 18 and above.  Minors will be considered if a parent or guardian plans to either enroll in the class, too, or commits to being there for each class session.  There is no maximum age limit.

Attendance in any group acting class is important.  Your scene partner can’t work if you aren’t there.  Even in a monologue class, we learn from each other.

To encourage attendance, we ask for a $50 deposit as part of your class fee.  If you attend EVERY class, you will get a $50 refund.

Yes! If you have the time, you are welcome to take multiple classes.
